Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The CWS-369G is a vinyl impact single-hung in the Hurricane Guard line, Large Missile Impact (LMI) rated and HVHZ-approved, so we can install it in Miami-Dade and Broward. It is certified under Florida Product Approval FL18689 (with its R5 revision). We confirm the specific approval that applies to your opening at the time of quote.
The CWS-369G vinyl single-hung matches the aluminum CWS-7100 on design pressure, both rated to +67.5 psf positive and -100 psf negative. So you get the same wind-load performance whether you go with the vinyl or aluminum frame. We help you choose between the two based on look, budget, and how the rest of your project is specced.
The CWS-369G runs from a minimum of about 13.5 by 21 inches up to a maximum of 52 by 96 inches, so it covers small bathroom and accent openings as well as tall single-hung runs. It operates as a single-hung, meaning the bottom sash slides up while the top stays fixed (an O/X configuration). We measure each opening and confirm the exact size at quote.
In its 7/8-inch insulated configuration (3/16-inch tempered, 3/8-inch airspace, 5/16-inch laminated SGP), the CWS-369G reaches a U-factor of 0.30 and an SHGC of 0.13, a strong pairing for cutting both heat transfer and solar heat gain. The 0.090-inch SentryGlas ionoplast interlayer in the laminated lite is what gives it impact resistance. It comes standard with Low-E 270 glass, with Low-E 366, Low-E 340, Low-E 366 Neat, gray-tinted, and obscure options available, and we help you pick the glass for your exposure.
The CWS-369G comes standard in white with bronze and two dual-color finishes (Bronze/White and Black/White) available so you can run a different color inside and out. It offers a wide range of grid options, including Contour and Flat grilles-between-the-glass, 6-Lite and 9-Lite Prairie, Traditional, Top Row, and custom layouts, plus privacy glass like Rain, Frosted, and Obscure. Hardware is an AutoLock in white (standard) or bronze, and a BetterVue screen is included. We will go over the finish, grid, and glass choices when we spec your windows.
Installed price depends on the size of each opening, the glass package and tint, grid and finish options, and the condition of the existing openings, so there is no flat price for the CWS-369G. Upgrades like dual-color finishes, privacy glass, or decorative grids add to the cost. Armor Pro provides a free, no-obligation estimate after we measure your openings.
The aluminum Hurricane Guard products carry current Miami-Dade NOAs and are HVHZ-eligible end to end, covering single-hung, slider, picture, casement, hinged patio door, and sliding glass door. The vinyl Hurricane Guard products carry Florida statewide approvals with more limited HVHZ coverage. For a Miami-Dade or Broward project we generally spec the aluminum side, and we confirm the exact approval against your opening size before ordering.
Hurricane Guard is unusual in offering both substrates under one name. Aluminum carries the higher design pressures and the full HVHZ approval set, so it's the choice where the span, the pressure, or the HVHZ code demands it. Vinyl runs cooler thermally and lands at a lower price, which suits non-HVHZ openings where budget and energy lead. We can mix both within one house, choosing per opening.
CWS (Custom Window Systems) is a Florida manufacturer founded in 1986 and headquartered in Ocala, with additional plants in Miami, Medley, and Jacksonville totaling more than 700,000 square feet. Because the line is engineered and built in Florida around the state's hurricane code, the products are designed for our climate rather than adapted to it. We install and service CWS products throughout South Florida.
